      You ladies should react to the Falkland Island war of 1982,
      The Falkland islands are over sea British territory. That was invaded by the Argentine army ,
      Our lady prime minister Margaret Thatcher sent our marines 800 miles to take back our island and protect our civilians,

Having them play sooo close is absolutely awesome and always sends a tingle down the spine. (And glad you girls like them)
    P.S. Did you know the Royal Marines Band played the introduction to Gerry Anderson's 1960's Thunderbirds show? Listen to that if you want a bit of a thrill :) )

    and ......Not miss a beat whilst doing so..... Such skill.....it is truly on another level....marching ten abreast, whilst playing a musical instrument...... Just....just Brilliant.

    Actual Remembrance Day in the UK is the 11th of November, (the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month), but is traditionally celebrated on the nearest Sunday to that date, known as Remembrance Sunday.
    There are more than 200 musicians marching here so keeping them all synchronised is superb. The leopard print cover is basically padding to help take the weight of the bigger, heavier drums. The really early versions of these were actual Leopard skins but the current ones are man made and use the pattern because it is tradition.

My great grandma who I'm named after was pregnant with my grandad at that time and already had two young boys. he was only 30 when he died and never got to see my grandad before he died, my heart brakes for my grandma for having two boys and being pregnant and loosing her husband and for my grandad for never even being held by his father. He has never complained or really even mentioned it, but I remember after doing our family tree showing him the ship his dad served on, some photos I've found and when I showed his his cremates he chocked up which kills me until this day. What our servicemen and women do and their families sacfrice should never be forgotten. I am incredibly proud of my great grandad for saving our country from tyranny.

      Actually, the tiger / leopard skins are a throwback to the early days of British military bands when the drummers were often Africans and would wear tribal costume (back then regimental bands were all civilian volunteers and dressed to impress). It's now carried on as a tradition.

    Well done girls. Another brilliant video, and thanks for putting our Royal Marines on again. They are the best! Others have told you about the Remembrance Service being held on the closest Sunday to Armistice Day (11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month). That was when the 'guns fell silent' in WW1. Sadly, this years wi be the first without our dear Queen attending. ( believe she only missed two over her 70 years of Service and Duty). Her poppy wreath that she always laid, was always the first of the Ceremony. Another video that may interest you is the documentary made at the time, showing how the 'Unknown Warrior' was brought home from France, and buried in Westminster Abbey. It's a fascinating story of how the 'warrior' was chosen, transported across to the UK, and given the highest Ceremony, and being buried where so many Kings, Queens, and many important people from our history are buried. If you're interested, for those who don't know, whenever there's been televised Ceremonies etc held in Westminster Abbey, many that were attended by our late Queen, if you watch as she begins the walk from the door, down the aisle she had to walk round a plot, with a black marble stone, right in the middle of the floor surrounded by poppies. That is the actual tomb of the Unknown Warrior. It was placed in that spot so that anyone (including visitors) has to see and recognise it. For any visitors to London a visit Westminster Abbey is well worth it. There is so much of our history in there, including the tomb of William the Conqueror. Sorry, l've rambled on a bit.

      And the bouquet of every royal bride is brought to the Abbey to lie on the tomb. It was started by the late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother when, as Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon about to walk up the aisle to marry the then Duke of York, she laid her bouquet down in memory of her brother who had died in WW1. For the centenary of the tomb, the late Queen Elizabeth was there as a replica of her own wedding bouquet was laid on the tomb. It's the Unknown Warrior rather than soldier because the casualties from the Royal Flying Corps/Royal Air Force and from Royal Navy and Royal Marine contingents fighting on the front (eg as artillery) were also laid to rest in the same cemeteries so the Warrior could be from any of the three services.

One other thing, is that that is the only tomb in the Abbey, that no one is allowed to walk on. All the other tombs are level with the flagstones (floor) around them, and people can walk over them, although, when we've visited, out of respect, people don't.

The gesture was in remembrance of her own brother, Fergus, who died at the Battle of Loos in 1915 and to pay tribute to the millions of others killed and injured in World War I."

Such a shame and a big mistake because it was probably one of the best recruitment tools. Within said Tournament would be something called The Field Gun Race done by the bravest and strongest lads in the Royal Navy as it was pretty dangerous to say the least but a huge source of pride and true brotherhood to be picked for the team. Quite a few recording on YT so just put "field gun race" in the search. It's absolutely mental to watch!

    Thanks for the slightly longer video than the 1 you were going to use before, Ladies - again, there are many of them available, and some even longer ones on YT to enjoy for you . . . From seeing some part of the stand at the end of it, it looks like they might have been heading to Horseguards for trooping the colour there. The flags along the way would have been Commonwealth ones flying - so what you thought was the US flag, Natasha - was more likely to be the Malaysian one instead . . .

    Snap, my daughter is also a November 12th baby, she is immensely proud that her birthday is in the middle of the remeberance period and is looking forward to parading in her Marine Blues at the local (Portsmouth) remeberance service the Sunday.
    For clarification remeberance day is also 11th November here but the official services at the cenotaph and local memorials are always the first Sunday after the 11th in this case the 13th.

    I grew up in a town in Kent called Deal, at that time (70s) the home of the Royal Marines School of Music. We used to hear them rehearsing and to watch larger practices and occasional processions through the town. The School moved some time ago but the bands still return to play each year. The noise of the massed bands would carry across the streets, very powerful and evocative. The band members are basically all professional musicians who occasionally do soldiering.

    The Leopard skin is worn as a protective apron to prevent damage or wear to their uniforms from the drums regularly rubbing the same areas of their chest’s, incidentally it also stops their uniform buttons scratching the painted finish of the drums, some of which is older than the men playing them. The use of the leopard skins is not confined to the Royal Marines Bands, but is common among most British marching bands, including the Salvation Army, but due to the rarity of the skins a lot of bands use sheepskin as an alternative, my uncle was a drummer in the local pipe band which is not a military organisation, just a group of fan’s of Scottish pipe music.

    Grandad was a Royal Marine Bandmaster and as he died before I was born, I never met him, but I've heard him play. HMV made a record of him playing as guest soloist on the clarinet in a classical piece with the orchestra of Copenhagen. He taught at the Portsmouth RM School of Music and as at that time Queen Victoria was in residence at Osborne House just across the water on the Isle of Wight, I am told that Her Majesty used to request his presence when being entertained musically by a small group of Royal Marine bandsmen. That gives you a good Idea of the standard that they had to achieve to become a member of the band, and they have to be competent on more than one instrument apparently. I'm proud of them all and appreciate very much your enthusiasm for them.

    Wonderful to come across this - especially on Remembrance Sunday. I did my bit with the cornet in the local silver band at the local war memorial today but obviously we weren't in the same league as these wonderful musicians. One of the highlights of my career in the Royal Navy was marching in front of a Royal Marines band from Horse Guards Parade through Central London in 1981 as part of the street lining for the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer. And then we got to do it all again at the end of the ceremony as we marched back to Horse Guards. Thanks for sharing and love your comments!

    Hi. Just found and subscribed to your channel. Love it-especially how you react to military stuff! Like you, my dad was a proud soldier both before and through ww2 and that pride is now with me. I see that you've seen the British navy, marines and the guards, but there's another part of the British Army thats a bit different. The Rifles. They march faster than ordinary soldiers and their quick march is actually running! Their dress uniform is green and not red and they use bugles- a lot of them- in their band. Its a very proud regiment going back to a little disagreement we had with you Americans a while back! They started off as the Kings American Rifles. Hope you think they're worthwhile checking. Cheers- keep up the great work! John

    Rememberance Sunday is the Sundat closest to Nov 11th. Armistice day Nov 11 is still marked in the uk by a minutes silence. Councils usually mark it by setting off signal flares with an explosive firework to signal the start and end of the silence and some shops request the shoppers join them in a minutes silence to pay our respects to the fallen.

    You may not see this, as it’s over a year. But Debbie’s necklace looks SO MUCH LIKE THE VICTORIA CROSS. Very hard to get. If by chance you do see this. You really need too do Jeremy Clarksons look at the VC and how hard it is to get. You may have too make it a two part program. But Trust me, it will be ever so well worth showing. It’s amazing what this man actually did. He turned the Germans round. Honest too God at least look at it, if you show this , I’ll be ever so great full. It is the full story of the VC. But please 🙏 look at it. It will break your heart in places. But it will give you a great insight how hard it is too get. You really need too see this, being military Family. Please look and see how you can do this. I’d never heard about this and I’ve been brought up in the UK all my life. There’s another but I’ll save that for another day. That is also such a commemoration too the men prepared too take it on. ❤❤🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧❤️🙏🇺🇸🇬🇧❤️🇺🇸
